YANMAR SUNSET MARINA CLUBHOUSE & HOTEL

It was another wonderful experience, just like last time. First, I was moved by the stunning view of Lake Biwa from the Room. Then we went up to the third floor for afternoon tea, followed by the infinity pool. Dinner felt different from last time as the season had changed and so had the menu. The aged Omi beef and curry udon—unchanged from before—were once again truly delicious. What was different this time was that we stayed on a weekend, so we could join special events. First was a morning yoga session the next day; thanks to the instructor’s guidance, I realized how stiff my body had become. Then we joined a farming experience in the on-site fields with guidance from Yanmar staff. We harvested plenty of fresh vegetables still covered in soil, and they were incredibly tasty when we took them home and cooked them. Weekend rates are slightly higher, but it was more than worth it and we were very satisfied. Even though we had just returned home, I immediately made another Reservation for our next stay. It is somewhat expensive, but I believe it offers great value. My family also loved these extraordinary experiences that feel completely different from city life.

This was my first visit, and I was truly able to relax and feel refreshed. The meals were simply outstanding. I was very satisfied to enjoy drinks and delicious food without worrying about getting home. Breakfast was also fun and tasty. In the morning lounge, however, the yogurt and smoothies were already gone before 9:00, which was a bit disappointing.The Room key also serves as the elevator key, but I felt it would be easier to understand if they were different colors. The coffee in the Room was delicious, but I would be even happier if tea were available as well.In any case, I was able to unwind far more than I expected. Thank you very much.
